What is a BINSR?

If you're buying or selling a home in Scottsdale or anywhere in Arizona, you've likely heard the term "BINSR". It stands for Buyer's Inspection Notice and Seller's Response. It's a critical document in an Arizona real estate transaction where the buyer formally requests repairs based on a home inspection.

The BINSR Process

After a home goes under contract, the buyer typically has an inspection period (often 10 days). During this time, they hire an inspector to review the property. If issues are found, the buyer submits the BINSR document detailing the negotiated repairs they'd like the seller to address before closing.

The seller then has three options: agree to fix all items, agree to fix some items, or refuse to fix any items. If the seller doesn't agree to all items, the buyer can choose to proceed or cancel the contract.

Common BINSR Repairs in Scottsdale

In our experience at The Fixory, some of the most common BINSR repair requests include:

  • Roofing Issues: Missing tiles, damaged underlayment, or worn seals around vents—common due to our intense sun.
  • Electrical Safety: Missing GFCI outlets near water sources, double-tapped breakers, or reversed polarity on outlets.
  • Plumbing Leaks: Minor leaks under sinks, aging water heaters near the end of their lifespan, or slow drains.
  • HVAC Performance: AC units not cooling efficiently, dirty coils, or aging ductwork.
  • Pool Equipment: Leaking pumps, malfunctioning pool heaters, or issues with pool decking.

Why Choose a Dedicated Handyman for BINSRs?

Sellers often scramble to find contractors to handle a diverse list of repairs quickly to keep a closing on track. Hiring separate roofers, plumbers, electricians, and painters is a logistical nightmare.
